Maybe Happy Ending is an original South Korean one-act musical with music composed by Will Aronson, lyrics written by Hue Park, and book written by both Aronson and Park. The musical follows two life-like helper-bots, Oliver and Claire, who discover each other in Seoul in the late 21st century and develop a connection that challenges what they believe is possible for themselves, relationships, and love.
Directed by Kim Dong-yeon, Maybe Happy Ending held its world premiere in Seoul at Lifeway Hall in DCF Daemyung Cultural Factory in 2016 to critical acclaim, and has since been revived numerous times locally and received productions internationally, with a Broadway production set to open in 2024.
At the 2nd Korean Musical Awards, it was nominated for six awards and won for all nominations, which included Best Musical, Best Director, Best Music, Lyrics and Book. The musical also won four awards at the 6th Yegreen Musical Awards including Musical of the Year Award, Music Award (Will Aronson), Directing Award (Kim Dong-yeon) and Female Popularity Award (Jeon Mi-do).
